Who looks inside, awakes…

“Your vision will become clear only
when you can look into your own heart.
Who looks outside, dreams;
who looks inside, awakes.”
~ Carl Jung

    Hello Dhyan. It sounds like visual art is your art. Maybe consider how much you are enjoying the process, not the product. Have a great journey.With loving kindness, Nameste.

    🙂 Painting, or drawing isn’t my art. Unfortunately. I do try to cultivate some sense of it nowadays so maybe in couple of years.

    Though for a honesty sake I must say I did try couple of times poetry self-portrait – it went very bed. My path still is wide and long

    You can try…Just dare to make mistake 🙂

    I always enjoy Jung and this is a wonderful quote, easy to trace its east origin.
    Indeed, the journey within is hard one but the only real one.

    I wish I could even try to create a self portrait. I very much liked the combination you posted.

    Hey Ayse,

    In your portrait, you become a vision, a hallucination, an emerald mirage emerging from the soft pastel in washes of spring colour, vibrancy and vitality exposed within the rapture of passionate red, and all blooming beneath a fall of liquid gold. Beautifully seasonal and enchanting.

    When i stand to gaze openly upon this world, I look skywards and stare into infinity. When I sit in stillness to journey deeply within myself, so to am I confronted by a vision of infinity. There is no difference metaphysically. So, one wonders where the inner and outer worlds divide. At what point do I become me, and establish myself as a separate, sentient entity…where does the ethereal plane and the 2-dimensional aspect of my imagined reality depart from their existential union? I think of myself as starseed, made manifest in this dimension by the manipulation of the same elements that create all things…and in that sense, to go within or to go without must surely be one and the same thing, unless there is clear divide between me and I? Further still, does the heart distil emotion, sentiment, and feeling to the point of absolute understanding and place the product of that intense experience in my mind without mindful discernment? I have heard it suggested that Higher Consciousness is without emotion…that it is ‘pure thought’ alone that seeds the mind of humankind with the intention of making that thought manifest through us. If so, then perhaps pure thought becomes the impulse to creative self expression in this reality?

    Thank you for wonderful artwork and a thought-provoking post.

    Namaste
